How To Notify Multiple Contacts With Device ManageR

You may notify multiple contacts of an alert condition in Device ManageR by assembling an Action/Notification List and then associating it with an Alert.

Overview

An Action/Notification List, like the one shown below, can tell Device ManageR to execute multiple actions–in this case, to send email to several different people:

ADM_ActionNotificationList_List_Multiple

Once you’ve created an Action/Notification List with multiple email Actions, you can associate it with an Alert, as shown below.

ADM_Add_Alert_with_NotificationList_Email_Multiple

In this example, because we’ve chosen our ‘Email IT & Facilities Staff’ Action/Notification List, Device ManageR will send emails to all four contacts when the internal temperature on this Room Alert crosses the high threshold we’ve set.

Set-up Instructions

Below are the steps to take to create this type of Action/Notification List. For more information about configuring each item, please see the associated FAQ listed with it.
